Festival of Slovenian Jazz Creativity Snowdrops and Primroses in Cankarjev dom, 2020.
The Snowdrops and Primroses Festival, taking place annually in Cankarjev dom's intimate venue Club CD, is dedicated to Slovenian jazz creativity and reflects the ongoing evolution of composition, methodology and performance of new music, both locally and internationally, regardless of the location of the leading protagonists' established domicile. Although it started with a view to providing a yearly insight into the evolving Slovenian jazz scene, the organisers had to acknowledge the fact that the country’s output is deeply embedded in international jazz currents. Recognising this important feature, the festival seeks to provide a platform for creative processes that transcend both conceptual and territorial boundaries. Moreover, Snowdrops and Primroses Festival is not a festival of newcomers; it’s only the concepts and the compositions that are fresh.
